text: EU based | Worldwide | Remote<p>Seeking freelancer(s) for project-based work, to offload some workload. Mainly creating backend, system &#x2F; embedded, small to medium, semi-independent components for the railway industry.<p>While all components should be non-safety-critical, for practical reasons, code should predominantly be obviously correct. Also reasonably readable, understandable and simple.<p>We do not have interest, time (or funds) for extensive debugging sessions or repeatedly repairing SW and consider it irresponsible (spoken as a SW developer). We would rather make something that just works and would expect the same from you.<p>Preferred languages would be Haskell or Rust, with sparing and judicious use of advanced features. Other languages and tools are acceptable if appropriate.<p>Compensation would hopefully be reasonable, though probably not appropriate for SV and HCOL areas, unless you&#x27;re unusually productive.<p>It you&#x27;re interested in this type of development, you can email me at labawi [at] fastmail.com.
